Anybody play chess? I play on chess.com if anyone fancies taking me on in a 3 days per move game.

Ill go for 11 & 90.

I'm not so strong on chess. Do you play Go by anychance?

11 and 90

I have got this for 'MY' DS (not my daughters..

) and it is great fun have done loads of the puzzles including the ones you have posted.

LOL. Did you get the correct answers first time though?

Why would he give the trader £100?

Of course I did...







(Well some of them..

)

11 and 95

i will go for 14 and £9

£9 change to £5 thick or what

No i don't, I had to google to see what it was.

Superb game. 2000 years old, simple rules, incredible strategies. In my view it makes chess appear like Kaplunk

Heresy! just because you're no good at it

That's probably true!

We had a 'Go Club' at my school, it wasn't heavily attended. The few kids that did attend, they seemed to use it as an escape to beat the bullies at dinner time & after school, rather than running the gauntlet, they'd play Go.

That's a shocking claim, to say that wires 71 was bullies at school.

I was bullied. Still I got my own back years later.

1) the hands will cross at approx:

1.06pm
2.11pm
3.16pm
4.22pm
5.28pm
6.30pm
7.37pm
8.44pm
9.48pm
10.54pm

and that's it I believe.; 10 in total. They won't cross after that as they will meet but not cross at 12 midnight

2) Simple maths this

x = case

therefore x + (x + £300) = £310

therfore 2x + £300 = £310

therefore 2x = £310 - £300

therefore 2x = £10

therefore x = £5

cost of case = £5 (presuming there wasn't a discount for buying the package of camera and case)


I presume this is correct wires71?

Have sent PM.

How? I like stories of how the bullies get their just desserts.

he wooed all their girlfriends with his wads of cash

Kids who bully are usually themselves bullied therefore victims of circumstance. To hold onto their sanity/ego/selfworth some transfer their pain onto others. Kids emotional development isn't exactly err developed. Given support/goals/focus can help vastly in their future life. To get your own back years later on what was technically a child makes you no better. If the lad that knocked me about all them years ago came to me for a job i would treat him completely fairly. I don't see the point of holding a grudge against a child

Sally, Julie, Andrew and Dave are all planning on making breakfast but each have different ingredients in their cupboards at home, this makes there shopping lists different

Sally buys 4 loaves of bread and 3 butter portions for £6.41

Julie buys a loaf of bread, pack of bacon and an egg for £5.14

Andrew buys 2 packs of bacon and 4 portions of butter for £7.56

Dave buys 10 eggs and a loaf of bread for £6.40

What does each individual item cost?

Eggs cost £0.50
Bacon costs £3.24
Bread costs £1.40
Butter costs £0.27

I think
